Councillor T Saffell, ward member, addressed the meeting, outlining his opposition to the application on the basis that the application would reduce A1 use in the central area and would result in a clustering of takeaways. He expressed concerns regarding the lack of parking provision, highway safety and that the proposals would not be in keeping with a conservation area. Mr A Sowter, parish councillor, addressed the meeting. He emphasised the amount of local concern and contested the figures in the assessment regarding the number of takeaway establishments in the local centre. He also expressed concerns regarding highway safety, the lack of parking provision, air quality issues and overall impact upon the conservation area. Mr N Kernahan, objector, addressed the meeting. He expressed concerns regarding the lack of onsite parking, the adverse impact upon traffic and highway safety and the blanket approach to the conservation area. He felt that the application should be refused on the grounds that the premises had not been vacant for 6 months in accordance with policy EC12. He highlighted the significant amount of public opposition to the proposals and urged members to visit the site at an appropriate time before making a decision. Mr F Sykes, agent, addressed the meeting. He sought to address the concerns raised and highlighted the lack of objections from the Environmental Health department and the Highways Authority. He suggested that a condition to reduce the opening hours could be added to reduce the impact upon residential amenity. Members had regard to the acoustic report, the lack of objection from the Environmental Health department and the Highways Authority and the high level of public opposition to the proposals. Councillor J Legrys moved that the application be permitted in accordance with the officer’s recommendation. This was seconded by Councillor G Jones. Councillor M Specht requested that a condition be added to restrict the opening hours as suggested. The mover and seconder of the motion agreed to the condition being added. It was moved by Councillor J Legrys, seconded by Councillor G Jones and RESOLVED THAT: Subject to amended conditions relating to opening hours, the application be permitted in accordance with the recommendation of the Head of Planning and Infrastructure.

A2 17/01575/OUT: ERECTION OF ONE DETACHED, SELF-BUILD DWELLING WITH DETACHED DOUBLE GARAGE AND FORMATION OF NEW ACCESS (ACCESS AND LAYOUT INCLUDED) Land Off Redburrow Lane Normanton Road Packington Leicestershire Officer’s Recommendation: REFUSE Having declared an interest, Councillor V Richichi left the meeting prior to consideration of this item and took no part in the discussion or voting thereon. The Planning and Development Team Manager presented the report to members. Councillor N Smith, ward member, addressed the meeting. He expressed the views of local residents that the proposed new dwelling was not required due to the proximity of the applicant’s existing dwelling to the site, and that the application was contrary to the adopted local pan. Mr A Pearson, parish councillor, addressed the meeting. He stated that the parish council objected to the proposals in accordance with the issues raised by the officers. He pointed out the proximity of the applicant’s current dwelling to the application site. Mrs S Goodwin, applicant, addressed the meeting. She stated that the purpose of the application was to protect her ponies whose welfare had been threatened by an adjacent development which meant that a 24 hour presence was required. She explained that the bloodlines in her stud were valuable and should be protected and she therefore urged members to support the application. When determining the application, members had regard to the impact of the existing neighbouring development, the needs of the animals, the self-build aspect of the proposals and the fact that the application site was outside the limits to development in the adopted local plan. It was moved by Councillor J Hoult, seconded by Councillor J Legrys and RESOLVED THAT: The application be refused in accordance with the recommendation of the Head of Planning and Infrastructure.

  • Coalville Fringe Assessment
    Urban Fringe 1: Western edge of Thringstone and New Swannington 1: View from School Lane 2: View from Red Hill Lane Element Assessment Score The Coalfield: Gently undulating landscape with effects of past and present coal and clay working. It displays a relatively dense pattern of former mining towns and villages characterised by 19th century mining terraces which follow the roads. The landscape is characterised by mixed farmland although away from settlements the land is mostly arable. There is generally low woodland cover. The land contains areas of restored land, some including establishing heathland, once far more extensive. Around Coalville the landscape is influenced by Bardon 21 warehousing, Bardon quarry and other light industrial development. Bardon Hill and quarry are features within views. The assessment notes that the land is part of the National Forest. Northern tip is part of Charnwood Forest: The underlying pre-Cambrian rocks result in a varied, hilly landform with exposed crags and rocky knolls and fast-flowing streams, resulting in a distinctive County Landscape character. The area has a high concentration of mixed deciduous and coniferous woodland, including many ancient woodland sites, hedges and hedgerow trees, some of which is unmanaged. The character area area is characterised by an intimate mixture of woodland and farmland in mixed arable and pasture uses. The area’s acidic soils support pockets of heathland vegetation, particularly around rocky outcrops, where the land has never been taken into cultivation. There is variable field patterns, with irregular fields often bounded by mixed hedges contrasted with long narrow rectilinear fields with stone walls.

    Coalville Times At War Friday October 1st 1915 (Issue 1230) Page 1 ASHBY CITIZENS’ CORPS INSPECTION The Ashby Citizen Corps had a practice and drill in the Bath Grounds on Sunday, under G. J. German and were joined by the Woodville Company under Mr Freckleton. The drill consisted of exercises in preparation for the inspection by Lord Rankesborough, which is to take place next Sunday. Lord Rankesborough will be remembered by old volunteers as Major-General Brocklehurst, who inspected the Ashby Company about ten years ago at Ashby. Page 3 WOUNDED SOLDIER’S OUTING A JOLLY PARTY About 200 wounded and convalescent soldiers from the Base Hospital at North Evington, Lutterworth, Charnwood and Melton hospitals had a glorious time on Saturday. They were entertained by the employees of Messrs. Walker, Kempson and Stevens (Sileby Branch) and Mr J. W. Molt, (of Sileby). As usual, the motor car arrangements were under the able supervision of Mr C. Geoffrey Barradale, on behalf of the Leicestershire Automobile Club. An informal procession, which started from the Victoria Park Gates, was made through the town. As on previous occasions, the Tommies were heartily cheered and showers of cigarettes, fruit, chocolates, etc., went into the cars. At Sileby, large crowds of people greeted the soldiers. The village was handsomely decorated with banners, flags and festoons. In a field adjoining the Conservative Club, a large marquee and platform had been erected. Among those present were Col. Yate, M.P., Mr J. H. Bott (manager for Messrs. Walker, Kempson and Stevens at Sileby), Mr J. W. Moir, Mr Wye (secretary of Messrs.

    Proceedings OF THE W esley Historical Society Editor: REv. JOHN C. BOWMER, M.A., B.D., Ph.D. Volume XXXIX October 1973 CAPTAIN THOMAS WEBB RETURNS To John Street Church, New York N Sunday, 3rd June 1973, Captain Thomas Webb returned to John Street United Methodist church, New York, in the 0 form of two physical trophies closely tied in to the concluding years of his life. The first was the memorial tablet which had been mounted in Portland Chapel, Bristol, soon after his death. The other was the original pastel portrait executed by Lewis Vasiet a few years before the Captain's decease.1 During his last years Thomas \V ebb lived in Bristol. He and his wife were very active in Methodist affairs-members of the society at John Wesley's chapel in the heart of the city-" The New Room in the Horsefair ".2 They appear to have resided in or near Portland Avenue, in the south·western sector of the city. The Captain be­ came convinced that a strong new society should be organized in the vicinity, and that a chapel could be provided for their worship. He gave himself sedulously to the project, securing an excellent site and erecting a chapel in Portland Place, although he himself could no longer make the financial contribution that his heart could have wished.8 Captain Webb died on 2oth December 1796, and was buried in Portland Chapel-in a vault below the recess in the sanctuary where stood the communion table. Mrs. Webb died early in January 182o, and she too was buried in the selfsame vault.4 1 For data on Lewis Vaslet, see footnote 9 on page 59· ~Archives of the New Room, Bristol.

  • TT0607-84 TT No.84: Andrew Gallon
    TT0607-84 TT No.84: Andrew Gallon - Tues 5th December 2006; Coalville Town v Stratford Town; Midland Alliance; Res: 1-4; Att: 62; Admission: £5; Programme: £1 (32pp); FGIF Match Rating: ***. The appeal of the essentially modern Owen Street Sports Ground lies in how it reflects the community from which it was spawned. Coalville, a town with its sleeves rolled up, was once the beating heart of the small Leicestershire coalfield and it is appropriate that landscaped spoil heaps dominate the ground on two sides and the winding gear of the defunct Snibston Colliery - now a major tourist attraction - is clearly visible behind another. There was nothing here until a mining engineer from nearby Coleorton, one William Shenton, discovered coal in 1828 after which Coalville become something of a boom town, particularly once the Leicester to Swannington Railway, the first public line in the Midlands, had opened and the number of pits mushroomed. Bust could have followed when the last mine closed during the 1980s but the town, like others of its ilk, is steadily reinventing itself and proving there is life after the abdication of King Coal. The football club dates back to 1926 and its formation as Ravenstone Miners Athletic - hence the team's Ravens nickname - but it really took off with the move to Coalville for the 1995-6 season after parish council planners refused permission for floodlights at Ravenslea in their home village. The ground, a short walk from the high street, is spick and span. Access is rather unpromising down an unmade lane alongside dreary industrial units but it opens out to reveal a well-appointed little set-up.

  • A Review of Freshwater Fish in Leicestershire and Rutland by Andrew Heaton, County Recorder for Fish, 2013
    A Review of Freshwater Fish in Leicestershire and Rutland By Andrew Heaton, County Recorder for Fish, 2013 1. Introduction 1.1 The Historic View Lacking the trout-haunted chalk streams or salmon-spawning upland rivers, Leicestershire and Rutland (L&R) have tended to be little regarded in fishery terms. Even the main coarse rivers (Soar, Welland) were not seen as measuring up to the Severn or Thames. In “The Compleat Angler”, Izaak Walton’s only reference to Leicestershire is to name it as one of the counties through which the Trent flows (forming the county boundary for a relatively short distance near Castle Donington). 1.2 Previous Studies There appear to have been few previous reviews or studies of fish populations related specifically to Leicestershire and/or Rutland. Browne (1889) listed L&R’s fish (also including details of fossil fish from the two counties). The wording used in the 1889 document was repeated almost exactly in Browne’s contribution to the Victoria County History (1907), though there is differentiation of River and Brook Lamprey in the 1889 publication, a distinction that was slightly confused in the VCH. Through the 20th Century, fish surveys were undertaken by the various water authorities, providing the information relevant to Leicestershire and Rutland mapped in Maitland (1972) and Davies et al (2004). Onions (2008, 2009) gave an overview of Leicestershire fish. 1.3 Recording Fish Whilst the bulk of fish surveys are undertaken by Environment Agency (EA) fisheries teams, utilising techniques such as netting and electrofishing, other people are recording fish and generating distribution maps.

    Local Transport Plan 3 Implementation Plan 2012 – 2015 1 Leicestershire Local Transport Plan 3 - Implementation Plan 2012-2015 Overview OUR PLAN The third Leicestershire Local Transport Plan (LTP3) covers the whole of Leicestershire, not including Leicester City. Leicester City Council has produced a separate plan that covers Leicester City, the area for which it is responsible. To ensure that the two plans align we worked closely with Leicester City Council on the development of LTP3, and we will continue to do so over the plan period as we implement our LTP3s. This will include building on joint working arrangements for scheme development, delivery and monitoring. This, the second Implementation Plan for Leicestershire, sets out the actions, schemes and measures that we propose to deliver in 2012/13. Please contact Leicester City Council for information on the transport measures that they propose to deliver in 2012/13. OUR SERVICES Highways are managed by local highway authorities and the Highways Agency (HA). In Leicestershire the HA is responsible for motorways and those A roads which have a national or regional significance, such as the M1 and A42. Leicestershire County Council is responsible for all other publicly maintained roads and the management of transport in Leicestershire. We manage and maintain over 4,100 km (2,500 miles) of roads and 3,000 km (1,875 miles) of Rights of Way. The Environment and Transport (E&T) Department delivers a wide range of services, which ensure that we manage our transport and highways effectively. These services include: • flood risk management • grass cutting • highway maintenance • highway signing • management of incidents and emergencies on the highway • on-street parking • road accident reduction • traffic management schemes • winter maintenance We also ensure that there are safe and reliable alternatives to car travel.

  • November 1914
    Coalville Times At War Friday November 6th 1914 (Issue 1183) Page 1 BELGIAN REFUGEES RELIEF COMMITTEE’S MEETING AT HUGGLESCOTE On Thursday evening, last week, the committee for the Coalville and District Belgian Relief Fund met to report progress in their work. Mr B. B. Drewitt presided and a large number were present, every district being represented. The meeting had been arranged the previous Monday, it was thought desirable to postpone it until after the public meetings had been held in support of the fund. Minutes of last meeting were read by Mr W. Cannor and confirmed. The collectors are the same as appointed for the Prince of Wales’s National Relief Fund, and their reports were considered very satisfactory. A total of £20 1s 3d was handed in as the result of the first visit. The sum included several donations, amongst them being a contribution from the relatives of soldiers and sailors now in receipt of relief from the Soldier’s and Sailor’s Relief Committee through the local secretary, Mrs Wykes. The amounts promised for weekly contribution were then reported (taken at their minimum) and will probably stand at £8. In addition to promises in money a large number of gifts were reported including bedsteads, tables, utensils of various kinds – several weekly gifts of bread and in one case 10s worth of grocery per week, delivered at Broom Leys. After the reports had been presented, conversation on one or two matters ensued. One collector asked what was to be said to a resident who express willingness to provide a home for a woman and child and who felt aggrieved and refused to contribute because no favourable reply had been received.
